MELDC
     
        A {reflective} {object-oriented} {concurrent} programming
        language developed in 1990 by the MELD Project of the
        Programming Systems Laboratory at {Columbia University}.
        MELDC is a redesign of {MELD} based on {C}.
     
        The core of the architecture is a {micro-kernel} (the MELDC
        kernel), which encapsulates a minimum set of entities that
        cannot be modelled as objects.  All components outside of the
        kernel are implemented as objects in MELDC itself and are
        modularised in the MELDC libraries.  MELDC is reflective in
        three dimensions: structural, computational and architectural.
        The structural reflection indicates that classes and
        meta-classes are objects, which are written in MELDC.  The
        computational reflection means that object behaviours can be
        computed and extended at run time.  The architectural
        reflection indicates that new features/properties
        (e.g. persistency and remoteness) can be constructed in MELDC.
     
        Version 2.0 runs on {Sun-4}/{SunOS} 4.1 and {DECstation} and
        {MIPS}/{Ultrix} 4.2.
